Stay Near Heathrow

Let us face it. You are here because you want a break from the norm. You simply need a break from day to day life. Now besides a holiday, how is best to do that? That’s it – doing something daring and something you would not normally think of. Here are some great suggestions:-

• Take a flight in a balloon
• Go sky diving
• Race a car at Silver Stone
• Fly a plane
• Get Pampered
• Go wine tasting

Remember that doing something extraordinary is what will make your holiday memorable. And if you are planing your holiday, it is worth noting that by booking before September 2008 (using the word Earlybird in the promotional area) you can get yourself up to 20% discount. What are you waiting for… make it SPECIAL!

Glastobury starts today. Sadly all tickets have already been sold out so if you are reading this and wish to go… perhaps you need to start considering planning next year!!

This year will close with The Verve playing. Shame to miss that!

The role of Nancy for the Oliver Musical was won by Jodie. The musical should open in December on Broadway in London. You can already book your tickets for the show from LondonTheatreDirect.

I expect there to be full houses due to the high publicity on BBC for the show “I’d do anything” in order to win the role of Nancy – so if you are planning to go – Book Now while seats are still available.

Everyone has heard of Madame Tussaud’s London (though now also based in Amsterdam, Berlin, New York, Washington DC, Las Vegas, Hong Kong and Shanghai).

You really must find time for a visit especially if you have never been. And for those who have been, there are changes and additions every year in case you were really looking for an excuse to visit.
